Premises liability, a category of personal injury law, holds property owners responsible for maintaining safe conditions on their properties. Property owners and occupiers are legally required to ensure their premises are free from hazards that could harm visitors or tenants. When this duty is breached and an injury occurs, the property owner or occupant may be held accountable for damages. At Maximus Law Firm, we specialize in handling cases involving injuries caused by property hazards, such as falls, unsafe surfaces, inadequate security, and other incidents resulting from dangerous conditions on someone else's property in Manhattan Beach. 

Slip and fall accidents are among the most common premises liability cases. Hazards like slippery floors and uneven walkways often lead to these accidents. Poorly maintained stairways or other unsafe conditions the property owner failed to address can also contribute to injuries. Other frequent causes of premises liability accidents include inadequate lighting, faulty handrails, debris or obstructions in walkways, and even dog bites on residential properties. Additionally, premises liability can cover incidents involving inadequate security, such as assaults or robberies on a property due to insufficient measures like broken locks, poor lighting, or a lack of surveillance cameras. 

The details of the injuries sustained in premises liability incidents can vary significantly based on the type of event. Common injuries include broken bones, sprains, concussions, spinal damage, and muscle or ligament strains. Victims often experience emotional suffering, such as anxiety and depression, especially if the injury has long-term effects on their ability to work or engage in everyday activities. Severe injuries may require long-term medical care, resulting in substantial financial burdens. 

At Maximus Law Firm, our team thoroughly investigates every premises liability case. We collect evidence, interview witnesses, and collaborate with experts to fully understand our client's injuries. We also evaluate whether the property owner neglected their duty to maintain safe conditions or failed to address known hazards. We aim to secure compensation for medical bills, lost wages, suffering, and emotional distress. We work tirelessly to ensure that our clients receive the justice they deserve.
